Singaporean indiepop band Blush release their second album Beauty Fades, Pain Lasts Forever digitally today. This record finds Blush on a mission to create pristine pop that explores life’s complex emotions. With intricately crafted compositions that swirl between dreamscapes and erratic noise, the four-piece turn heartbreak into something deceptively satisfying.
Blush is also sharing an analog visual for album track "Ultrablue!", which features lyrics imposed over candid VHS footage of Blush's Soffi Peters and Darell Laser mirroring the song’s lyrical theme of missed connections on the streets of Tokyo.
"Beauty Fades, Pain Lasts Forever" is out digitally today and pink vinyl instores on September 26th, available for pre-order now.
